This mechanism is involved in the immune system's response to foreign materials, in autoimmune pathologies, and in responses to cellular abnormalities. Much work has focused on the mechanisms by which proteins are processed into the HLA binding peptides.

Abstract
The invention relates to new members of the GAGE family referred to as GAGE-7B and GAGE-8. There are differences between these two molecules and the previously described members of the GAGE family on the genomic DNA, complementary DNA, and amino acid level.
Description
- This invention relates to a nucleic acid molecule which codes for a tumor rejection antigen precursor. More particularly, the invention concerns genes, whose tumor rejection antigen precursor is processed, inter alia, into at least one tumor rejection antigen that is presented by MHC molecules. The genes in question are members of the GAGE family of genes.
- The process by which the mammalian immune system recognizes and reacts to foreign or alien materials is a complex one. An important facet of the system is the T lymphocyte, or “T cell” response. This response requires that T cells recognize and interact with complexes of cell surface molecules, referred to as human leukocyte antigens (“HLA”), or major histocompatibility complexes (“MHCs”), and peptides. The peptides are derived from larger molecules which are processed by the cells which also present the HLA/MHC molecule. See in this regard Male et al.,Advanced Immunology (J. P. Lipincott Company, 1987), especially chapters 6-10. The interaction of T cells and HLA/peptide complexes is restricted, requiring a T cell specific for a particular combination of an HLA molecule and a peptide. If a specific T cell is not present, there is no T cell response even if its partner complex is present. Similarly, there is no response if the specific complex is absent, but the T cell is present. This mechanism is involved in the immune system's response to foreign materials, in autoimmune pathologies, and in responses to cellular abnormalities. Much work has focused on the mechanisms by which proteins are processed into the HLA binding peptides. See, in this regard, Barinaga, Science 257: 880 (1992); Fremont et al., Science 257: 919 (1992); Matsumura et al., Science 257: 927 (1992); Latron et al., Science 257: 964 (1992). Also see Engelhard, Ann. Rev. Immunol. 12: 181-207 (1994).
- The mechanism by which T cells recognize cellular abnormalities has also been implicated in cancer. For example, in PCT application PCT/US92/04354, filed May 22, 1992, published on Nov. 26, 1992, and incorporated by reference, a family of genes is disclosed, which are processed into peptides which, in turn, are expressed on cell surfaces, which can lead to lysis of the tumor cells by specific CTLs cytolytic T lymphocytes, or “CTLs” hereafter. The genes are said to code for “tumor rejection antigen precursors” or “TRAP” molecules, and the peptides derived therefrom are referred to as “tumor rejection antigens” or “TRAs”. See Traversari et al., Immunogenetics 35: 145 (1992); van der Bruggen et al., Science 254: 1643 (1991), for further information on this family of genes. Also, see U.S. Pat. No. 5,342,774.
- In U.S. Pat. No. 5,405,940, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference, it is explained that the MAGE genes code for proteins which are processed to nonapeptides which are then presented by an HLA-A1 molecule. The reference teaches that given the known specificity of particular peptides for particular HLA molecules, one should expect a particular peptide to preferably bind to one HLA molecule. This is important, because different individuals possess different HLA phenotypes. As a result, while identification of a particular peptide as being a partner for a specific HLA molecule has diagnostic and therapeutic ramifications, these are only relevant for individuals with that particular HLA phenotype. There is a need for further work in the area, because cellular abnormalities are not restricted to one particular HLA phenotype, and targeted therapy requires some knowledge of the phenotype of the abnormal cells at issue.
- In U.S. Pat. No. 5,629,166 filed incorporated by reference, the fact that the MAGE-1 expression product is processed to a second TRA is disclosed. This second TRA is presented by HLA-C clone 10 molecules. The disclosure shows that a given TRAP can yield a plurality of TRAs. Also, see U.S. Pat. No.5,554,506, incorporated by reference, teaching peptides which bind to HLA-A2.
- U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,530,096 and 5,487,934 incorporated by reference herein teach that tyrosinase, a molecule which is produced by some normal cells (e.g., melanocytes), is processed in tumor cells to yield peptides presented by HLA-A2 molecules.
- In U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/032,978, filed Mar. 18, 1993, and incorporated by reference in its entirety, a second TRA, not derived from tyrosinase is taught to be presented by HLA-A2 molecules. The TRA is derived from a TRAP, but is coded for by a non-MAGE gene. This disclosure shows that a particular HLA molecule may present TRAs derived from different sources.
- In U.S. Pat. No. 5,571,711, filed Jun. 17, 1993 and incorporated by reference herein, an unrelated tumor rejection antigen precursor, the so-called “BAGE” precursor, is described. The BAGE precursor is not related to the MAGE family.
- A further family of genes which are processed into tumor rejection antigens is taught by U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,610,013 and 5,648,226, as well as patent applications Ser. Nos. 08/531,662 and 08/602,039, filed on Sep. 21, 1995 and Feb. 15, 1996 respectively, both of which have been allowed, and U.S. patent applications Ser. Nos. 08/669,161 and 09/012,818, filed on Jun. 24, 1996 and Jan. 23, 1998, respectively. All of these applications are incorporated by reference. They reveal that there is a family of genes, the “GAGE” genes, which are related to each other. Six members of the GAGE family are described in these references.
- It has now been found that there are at least two further members of the GAGE family, referred to hereafter as GAGE-7 and GAGE-8. These genes, as well as other aspects of the inventions, will be described in detail in the disclosure which follows.
- Melanoma cell line MZ2-MEL and cell lines derived therefrom are known. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,342,774, incorporated by reference. One subclone, i.e., MZ2-MEL 3.0 was obtained by limiting dilution, and is described in the '774 patent. A subline, i.e., MZ2-ME2.43 was derived by limiting dilution of MZ2-MEL 3.0 cells which had survived mutagen treatment. See Herin, et al, Int. J. Canc. 39:390-396 (1987); Van den Eynde, et al, Int J. Canc. 44:634-640 (1980). This subline had been used as a source of cDNA from which nucleic acid molecules encoding GAGE 1-6 were isolated. See U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,610,013; 5,648,226; application Ser. Nos. 08/531,662; 08/602,039; 08/669,661; and 09/012,818 cited supra, and Van den Eynde, et al, J. Exp. Med. 182:689-698 (1995), all of which are incorporated by reference.
- The cDNA library from MZ2-MEL.43 was rescreened, using the same protocols as are set forth in the above referenced patent and 1995 paper. Two additional positive clones were identified. These molecules were named GAGE-7B and GAGE-8. They are discussed further, infra. The nucleotide sequences for cDNA for these molecules are set forth as SEQ ID NO: 1 (GAGE-8), and SEQ ID NOS: 2 and 3 (GAGE-7B).
- These experiments describe the isolation of genomic DNA molecules encoding GAGE-7B.
- Peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) were isolated, and grown, using standard methodologies. The genomic DNA was then isolated from the PBLS, partially digested with endonuclease Sau3A1, size fractionated using NaCl density gradient centrifugation, and then ligated into GEM-11 cloning vector, which had been digested with BamHI and EcoRI.
- The phage library was screened, using a probe labeled with α32P dCTP, consisting of nucleotides 18-309 of cDNA for GAGE-1. Conditions for this Southern hybridization was standard, as described by Sambrook et al: Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual (Cold Spring Harbor Press, 1989), incorporated by reference. The washing conditions were 0.2×SSC, 0.1% SDS, at 65° C.
- One of the positive clones was analyzed, and found to contain an insert corresponding to GAGE-7B. The sequence, set forth at SEQ ID NO: 3, contains 5 exons, including an open reading frame over exons 2 to 5, which encodes a 117 amino acid product.
- The fourth intron of this sequence includes two regions which show strong homology with a region found only in GAGE-1. There is a 561 base pair segment positioned in between these regions at nucleotides 7109-7659, which corresponds to a truncated, L1 retroposon which belongs to the family of long interspersed repeated elements, or “LINE”; as described by Hutchinson, et al, in Berg, et al, eds, “Mobile DNA” (Am. Soc. Microbiol. 1989), incorporated by reference. The LINE element is flanked by a perfect 13 base pair target site duplication, and contains part of the reverse transcriptase coding region, the 3′-untranslated region, and the poly-A tail of the original retroposon.
- A cosmid library was prepared using genomic DNA from renal cell carcinoma cell line LE9211-RCC, following the methodologies described by Lurquin, et al, Cell 58: 293-303 (1989), and screened using the Southern hybridization method set forth in example 2, using the same probe.
- A cosmid was identified which contained genomic DNA for GAGE-8. Its structure was the same as that of GAGE-7B, including the LINE insertion discussed supra.
- These experiments describe how the chromosomal location of the GAGE genes was determined. Southern blot analysis was carried out on a panel of hamster or mouse×human somatic cell hybrids, obtained from the Human Genetic Mutant Cell Repository. The DNA from these somatic cell hybrids was isolated, digested with EcoRI, and used to prepare Southern blots, in accordance with Arden, at el, Cytogenet. Cell Genet. 53:161-165 (1990), incorporated by reference. The GAGE-1 probe, labeled with α32P dCTP, as described supra, was used. A single, EcoRI band of 4.3 kilobases was detected, indicating that the EcoRI sites defining the fragment are conserved in all GAGE genes. The only hybridization signal came from a hybrid containing the human X chromosome. No signal came from hybrids containing human autosomes, or the Y chromosome.
- Experiments were than carried out to refine the localization of the GAGE locus. Somatic cell hybrids containing only a portion of the X chromosome were analyzed via Southern hybridization, as described supra, as well as by PCR.
- For PCR, primers corresponding to nucleotides 453-470 of GAGE-1 cDNA (sense), and nucleotides 613-630 of GAGE-1 cDNA (antisense), were used. These should amplify a 0.7 kb fragment of genomic DNA, and a fragment consisting of nucleotides 453-630 of GAGE-1 cDNA, as set forth in U.S. Pat. No. 5,610,013 at SEQ ID NO: 1. Thirty five cycles of amplification were carried out, each cycle consisting of denaturation at 94° C. (1 minute), annealing at 50° C. (1 minute), and extension at 72° C. for 1 minute. The PCR was preceded by 3 minutes of incubation at 94° C., and was followed by a soak at 72° C. for 10 minutes. Amplified products were electrophoresed on 2% agarose gels, and were visualized by ethidium bromide staining. The analysis revealed that the GAGE genes are located in chromosomal region Xp21-Xq13.
- A further set of experiments were carried out to find the location of the GAGE locus, using fluorescence in situ hybridization, or “FISH”. To accomplish this, PBLs were stimulated with PHA, and cultured for 72 hours. Banded chromosomes were obtained by inoculating some cultures with 5-bromodeoxyuridine, in accordance with Lemieux, et al, Cytogenet. Cell Genet 59:311-312 (1992). Cytogenetic harvests, and slide preparations were prepared using standard methods. Slides were stored at −80° C. until used.
- FISH hybridization to metaphase chromosomes was carried out following Pinkel, et al, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci USA 83:2934-2938 (1986). Briefly, slides were denatured for 2 minutes in 70% formamide/2×SSC (pH 7.0), and then dehydrated in ice cold ethanol. A cosmid which contained gDNA for GAGE-7B was used as a probe. The probe (100 ng) was labeled with digoxigenin, preannealed with 100 mg of COT-1 DNA, dissolved in buffer (50% formamide, 2×SSC), denatured at 75° C. for 5 minutes, and then applied to slides. The probes were hybridized to the material on the slides, overnight at 37° C., in a humid chamber.
- After the incubation, the slides were washed using standard procedures, and then analyzed using standard FITC-digoxigenin detection methods, together with an amplification protocol for dual color FISH. The slides were counterstained by mounting in an antifade solution containing 1 mg/ml phenylenediamine and 0.3 mg/ml propidium iodide. Spreads were examined, and photographed. A signal was deemed to be specific only if detected on each chromatid of a single chromosome. Chromosome identification was performed via simultaneous hybridization with the satellite repeat probe, or by R-banding, using 5-bromodeoxyuridine in accordance with Lemieux, et at, supra.
- These experiments indicated that the GAGE locus is in the p11.2-p11.4 region of the X chromosome.
- These experiments were designed to determine expression of GAGE genes in various cell and tumor types. For each type of cell assayed, total RNA was extracted, using standard guanidium-isothiocyanate procedures, as taught by e.g., Davis, et al. in Basic Methods In Molecular Biology, Elsevier Science Publishing Co., N.Y. (1986), pp. 130-135. Reverse transcription was carried out on 2 ug samples of the total RNA, using 2 mM of Oligo(dT)15 primer, in a reaction volume of 20 ul. Portions of the resulting cDNA ({fraction (1/20)} of the product), were used in the PCR amplification. In order to amplify GAGE-1, 2, and 8, the primers used were:
(sense, SEQ ID NO: 4) 5′-GACCAAGACG CTACGTAG-3′ and (antisense, SEQ ID NO: 5) 5′-CCATCAGGAC CATCTTCA-3′ - For GAGE-3, 4, 5, 6 & 7B, the primers were:
- 5′- GACCAAGGCG CTATGTAC-3′
- (sense, SEQ ID NO: 6)
- and SEQ ID NO: 5
- For all amplifications, the denaturation step was 94° C. for 5 minutes, then 30 cycles of amplification (1 minute at 94° C., 2 minutes at 58° C., 2 minutes at 72° C.), then a f extension step of 72° C. for 15 minutes. The products were analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis, with RNA integrity being checked by reverse transcription and amplification of β-actin mRNA.
- When these primers are used, SEQ ID NOS: 4 and 5 produce a fragment consisting of nucleotides 107-350 of SEQ ID NO: 3. SEQ ID NOS: 5 and 6 produce a fragment consisting of nucleotides 92-335 of SEQ ID NO: 1.
- Table 1, which follows, shows the results. The highest fraction of positive tumors were found in melanoma, esophageal and lung carcinomas. GAGE 1, 2 and 8 was found in prostate carcinomas, breast carcinomas, and sarcomas. GAGE 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7B were not found in these tumors. No expression of GAGE was found in colorectal and renal carcinoma.

SEQ ID NOS: 4 and 5, supra, were used in the amplification protocol. GAGE 1, 2, and 8 were found to have been induced in sarcoma and melanoma cell lines. All GAGE genes were found to be expressed following treatment of PHA stimulated PBLs.
- The foregoing examples set forth the invention, which includes isolated nucleic acid molecules which encode proteins GAGE 7B and GAGE 8. These may be, e.g., those set forth at SEQ ID NO: 1, 2 or 3, as well as all nucleic acid molecules which encode the proteins encoded by theses sequences. When GAGE-7B and GAGE-8 are compared to the other members of the GAGE family, cDNA for GAGE-8 is found to be identical to cDNA for GAGE-2 but for a single nucleotide, at nucleotide 268 (“C” in GAGE-2, versus “G” in GAGE-8). This leads to a change in the amino acid at position 74 (His in GAGE-2, Asp in GAGE-8). GAGE-7B is identical to GAGE-4, but for two nucleotides at positions 268 and 548. This first difference (“G” in GAGE-4, “C” in GAGE-8), results in a change at amino acid 74 as well (Asp in GAGE-4, His in GAGE-7B).
- There are further differences in the organization of the genomic DNA, as explained supra. Specifically, GAGE-8 and GAGE-7B differ from GAGEs 2-6 in that they contain two 2 0 inserts in the fourth intron. These inserts are found in GAGE-1 genomic DNA; however, GAGE-8 and 7B also contain a 561 base pair insert positioned in between these two inserts, which is not found in the genomic DNA of GAGE-1.
- In addition to the nucleic acid molecules discussed supra, other features of the invention include expression vectors which include the nucleic acid molecules of the invention, operably linked to a promoter. Both cDNA and genomic DNA can be used, in expression vectors of various types. These, as well as the isolated nucleic acid molecules of the invention, can be used to make recombinant eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, which contain either the isolated nucleic acid molecules or the expression vectors of the invention. The choice of which nucleic acid molecule or which expression vector to use will be up to the skilled artisan, depending upon the application of interest.
- The nucleic acid molecules of the invention do include segments which correspond to peptides presented by HLA-Cw6 and HLA-A29, i.e., YRPRPRRY (GAGE 1, 2 and 8), and YYWPRPRRY (GAGE 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7B). Hence, a further aspect of the invention are recombinant cells which, in addition to including molecules which encode GAGE-7B and GAGE-8, also include one or more nucleic acid molecules which encode MHC molecules, such as HLA-Cw6 and/or HLA-A29. It is to be understood that additional genes which are processed to presented antigens may be used as well the GAGE 7B and 8 genes.
- Also a feature of the invention are the proteins encoded by the nucleic acid molecules of the invention. As explained, supra, these proteins are similar, but not identical to other GAGE proteins. Also, part of the invention are fragments of the proteins of the invention. In particular, these fragments compare at least the first 74 amino acids encoded by the SEQ ID NO: 1, 2 or 3, and no more than the entire molecule encoded by these sequences. These proteins are set forth at SEQ ID NOS.: 6 and 7. Also a part of the invention are those peptides, derived form GAGE 7B and/or GAGE 8, which complex to MHC molecules, thereby identify a particular molecule, and also in at least some cases, facilitating the proliferation of cytolytic T cells which recognize complexes of the peptide and the MHC molecule to which it binds. One or more of these peptides can be combined in compositions, which may also include one or more adjuvants, such as GM-CSF, an interleukin, an emulsifying oil such as Vitamin E, a saponin, etc.
- “Minigenes” can also be produced which are nucleic acid molecules that consent of nucleotides that encode these peptides. Constructs can also be prepared, such as expression vectors, which encode one or more of these peptides.
- An exemplary list of such peptides, with the partner MHC molecule, follows:
